Lead Work in Appleby-in-Westmorland

Appleby-in-Westmorland customers looking for lead work turn to Sweep It Cumbria. Lead flashing seals the junction between your chimney stack and the roof covering. In Cumbria's wet climate, failed or cracked lead is one of the primary routes for rainwater into a property — staining ceilings, soaking roof timbers, and eventually tracking down to the chimney breast below. We repair and replace lead soakers, stepped flashings, and back-gutters at chimney stacks, using the correct grade of lead appropriately dressed and bonded to shed water clear. All lead is laid with the correct fall and overlap for long-term weathertightness in a high-rainfall environment. Appleby-in-Westmorland is the former county town of Westmorland, famous for its annual Horse Fair and its long main street of Georgian and Victorian properties running down to the River Eden. Many of the town's period buildings retain original fireplace configurations — wide hearths and multi-flue stacks — that we sweep and inspect.
